My Place Hotel Altoona IA

I come here every year for a corporate event. The place is clean, the service is good, and the staff are friendly. Around 4am, the guest above me dropped everything they owned on the floor at least twice. Obviously that's not the hotel's fault.

The rooms were really clean and the bed was comfortable. My black light didn't pick anything up, so they must do a thorough job. The general manager was super friendly, and the location is great, right by Texas Roadhouse. Very affordable too.

The staff were nice and accommodating, and nothing else about my stay was bad. I don't mind the smell of weed, but if you do, this may not be the place for you. My issue is the rewards. I stayed for two months and spent a lot, but they discounted the rate because of the long stay, then said I wasn't eligible for hotel points. A discounted room shouldn't mean zero rewards. Points should reflect what you paid, and a discount shouldn't disqualify you from earning any. Wyndham chains honor points whether or not a room is discounted and welcome the business, so I'll go there for extended stays instead. One star because they wouldn't honor the points.

The floors are wooden, so every footstep carries. Someone above us walked around all night, and at 6am a group started talking so loudly we could hear every word. There was an unbelievable amount of noise from other rooms and people moving about. If you want a peaceful night's sleep, stay somewhere else, even if you have to pay more.
